I have open book 7.02 and kurzweil 9.02 with the patch and I won't say which one is better but kurzweil has better tools to use while editing a book.

SOME of us are on both list. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kasondra payne" <Kassyp36@xxxxxxx> To: <bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, April 21, 2005 9:24 PM Subject: [bookshare-discuss] my software >I have both Trial versions of Kurzweil and Open Book.
